POV: Travis
I love my new sister. But she makes me sad. I miss my Katie. I have to protect my new sister, Katie though. I can't lose her again.
I decided to get out of bed and wake the rest of my siblings. Little Katie had crawled into my bed last night. I brushed hair out of her face. She was really warm. Her forehead burned my hand. She had a fever.
I quickly woke my siblings then took Katie to the infirmary. She was crying.
"Travis..." she whined, "I don't feel good..."
"I know," I whispered to her, "Go back to sleep."
She nodded and fell back asleep.
"Will!" I whisper shouted.
"Travis? What's up?"
"My sister... she woke up with a really bad fever and she was complaining she wasn't feeling good..."
"Ok. Travis, you need to calm down. Put her on a cot and we'll figure out what's wrong, ok?"
I nodded then gently placed my little sister on a cot.
I watched as Will ran some tests.
"Um Travis...."
"What?" I demanded, "Is she ok?"
"No. She has COVID. I'm not sure what's going to happen to her. But, we have to quarantine her, you, and the entire camp. I'll inform Chiron."
I put my head in my hands. Katie had had a cough for a few days, but none of us were worried. Now, I was.
Katie started coughing. I held her close and rubbed her back as she coughed.
"It hurts..." she wheezed.
"I know..." I held back tears. Katie apparently had asthma so I was really worried about her. "Just keep breathing...."
She nodded and kept coughing. I kissed her head.
After a while, Will came back in and moved us to a separate room. He gave Katie a respirator so she might be able to breathe a bit better.
Soon, Katie fell back asleep. And Will came in.
"Travis," Will started, "there's a chance Katie might not survive this... because of her asthma..."
"No... I can't lose her! Not again!"
"Travis, you have to understand that this is really dangerous for her."
"I know.."
"Get some sleep," Will told me.
I obeyed.
Here you go my lovely readers. It has been a while.
